Some time ago, I was looking for a fit for the morning, which should be healthy and delicious. After a while experimenting with it, I ended up with this ginger lemon drink recipe.
ingredients
- about 150 g of ginger
- 3-4 organic lemons
- about 1 L of water
preparation
- I peel the ginger and rub it on a fine grater, then I rub the peel of lemons off completely and squeeze them out.
- The mixture then comes in a pot and is poured with boiling water.
- Pull it all through until everything has cooled (preferably over night) and then strain through a fine sieve. The ginger mass also squeeze well that nothing is lost from the valuable ingredients.
The resulting drink is very concentrated and should be drunk diluted. Every morning I take half a glass of it and pour the rest with mineral water. A few leaves of fresh herbs in the glass (mint, lemon balm or basil, for example) give the whole always a new note.
Bottled in a bottle, the concentrate keeps in the fridge for a few days.
A few more information about the ingredients:
Ginger helps against nausea, has a natural antibiotic effect, is anti-inflammatory and helps with pain (used, for example, as an adjunctive therapy for rheumatic complaints).
Caution should be exercised in pregnant women and patients taking blood thinners (ginger tends to dilute blood), as well as in people with stomach problems (especially gastric ulcers).
Lemons in addition to the known vitamins and antioxidants also have a positive effect on digestion and have a positive effect on the blood count, because they have a detoxifying effect on the liver and kidneys (especially the shell).
In addition, it is expectorant, anti-inflammatory, anticonvulsant and it lowers the cholesterol level.
Furthermore, lemons, which I found particularly astonishing, regulate the acid-base balance and thus counteract hyperacidity.
All in all, two healthy all-rounders that are still tasty. Buy now
